April 12th - 18th

A Film By Olivia Silver

A coming-of-age story set in a vast, cross-country landscape, Arcadia begins when twelve-year-old Greta’s dad wakes her up before dawn and crams his three kids into a dented station wagon. They set off on a 3,000 mile journey from the New England woods to the California desert, as Dad tells enchanting stories, paints pictures of a California paradise, and assures the kids that Mom will soon join them. Greta believes him at first, mesmerized by the strange new scenery and clinging to her stuffed bunny Harrison. Older sister Caroline nonchalantly accepts his stories, more focused on the boyfriend she’s leaving behind. And nine-year-old Nat, too young to suspect a thing, is eager to see the epic Grand Canyon.

Arcadia stars celebrated actor and Oscar-nominee John Hawkes andfeatures unforgettable performances by child actors Ryan Simpkins, herreal-life brother Ty Simpkins and Kendall Toole. Taking home theCrystal Bear for Best Feature at the Berlin Film Festival in 2012,Arcadia went on to win awards at multiple film festivals around theworld, including the Adrienne Shelly Award for Excellence inFilmmaking at the Nantucket Film Festival and the Grand Jury Prize atthe Cine Junior Film Festival in Paris.

Arcadia has been called "arichly observed family drama that you will long remember" by theSarasota Insider, while the Northwest Film Forum called Arcadia a"beautifully scripted story that lends a new and somber weight totales of the American highway," and Fretts on Film said: "Arcadiafeels like a minor American classic, and Hawkes' work stands with thefinest American anti-star turns of the '70s." Says The Film Yap ofwriter/director Olivia Silver: "This is one new filmmaker to watch -someone who intrinsically understands how to tell a story, when toreveal and when to pull back, when to punch the audience in the gutand when to let them find their own way."
